On the Planet Earth series, I was forced to listen to Susan Sarandon narrate. I can't decide who's worse between her and Oprah. , why can't I get some Attenborough?? :mad: |

Mammals this week should be good though. |

You must have been forced to test a whole different version, as Sigourney Weaver did the narration of the American release.
When you find away to escape your oppressors, your freedom will be rewarded with the knowledge that a simple trip to the library, or worst case scenario, a couple minutes on Amazon, is all you need do to get Planet Earth voiced by your savior Attenborough. |

Oh my gosh, you must be kidding. The Chameleons absolutely blew my skull all over the room. |

| Yeah, watching the pebble toad tumble down a mountainside unscathed was really boring. |

| Attenborough is awesome, i met him as a baby, his parents knew my grandparents/great grandparents. I dunno which episodes are which from this series, but the one where they're off bermuda or jamaica i think it is was especially awesome. |

Yeah, giant ass lizards fighting each other. Completely sick.
I actually liked the episode about insects, especially the end when they examined those massive Bees that sounded like helicopters when they flew around. |

haha... my fault. I meant Sigourney Weaver, not Susan Sarandon. Either way, she sucked. The thing is, I didn't even know there was another version with Attenborough. Perhaps I really am oppressed? |

| Visually amazing, Oprah narrating makes me want to punch babies. Discovery are a bunch of gigantic ******s. If you don't want to use david, use patrick stewart or something. |
